[edit] Reason (program) components

I'm crunching this huge list of nominations together into one to make them more cohesive. They're basically all stubs on (apparently non-notable) components of Reason (program), and are almost guaranteed to all meet the same fate. This just makes discussion easier. (|-- UlTiMuS

  • Merge to Reason (program) as it seems to be part of that program. -- Whpq 17:06, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge to Reason (program). It's notable, but not on its own. (|-- UlTiMuS 18:01, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge per Ultimus - no evidence of multiple non-trivial coverage in third-party sources to merit its own article per WP:SOFTWARE. Walton Vivat Regina! 18:02, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:SPAM. This seems more aimed to selling the product than any other factor. RGTraynor 17:38, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak Delete - only link is to their own site; no evidence of multiple non-trivial coverage in independent sources to establish notability per WP:SOFTWARE. Delete unless sources are added by the end of this AfD. Walton Vivat Regina! 18:00, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete although I see the value in merging these articles, because they are all part of the Reason (program), I feel if they are merged, it will cause that article to be even bigger mess than it already is, and then we'll have to deal with getting that cleaned up.

  • Unbundle and Keep ReCycle (program), but Merge others. Recycle is a stand-alone, shipped-separately application that is produced by the makers of Reason, but is not part of the same package. It is notable in its own right as a loop editing and "beat-slicing" app. The information in the remaining articles is useful and a careful merge would help the main article, but deletion wouldn't be a disaster. --Mike C | talk 14:15, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Perhaps I should have made it clearer, but Reason (program) isn't up for deletion here (it's not in the list). It's pretty obviously notable. The question is whether the seperate components are. (|-- UlTiMuS 17:07, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Confused Reason with ReCycle. My bad, comment is irrelevant. (|-- UlTiMuS 17:08, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge to Reason (program)#Reason devices. If the merge is performed, the issue of notability raised by 2 editors supporting "delete" becomes moot. Notability applies to the subject of an article in its entirety and not to individual sections of an article. -- Black Falcon 08:24, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
